## TL;DR

The fix is usually in the serving pipeline rather than in Fiddler: make sure the feature engineering code that runs in production emits exactly the same feature names and types as the training pipeline, and check for silently dropped columns, for example a join that started returning nulls or a renamed upstream field. Fiddler compares the production data schema against the baseline (training) schema, and it flags three things: feature names that do not match, data types that changed, and features present in training but missing from production data.

## When to use

- You are dealing with this situation.
- The symptom matches: Fiddler AI schema mismatch between training and production data.

## When NOT to use

- Unrelated issues with a different cause.
- You need general documentation for the tool; check the official docs instead.

## Variant phrasings

### Fiddler AI schema mismatch between training and production data

## Why it happens

Fiddler is flagging schema mismatches on my production model even though training and serving use the same pipeline. What exactly does Fiddler compare, and how do I fix it?

## Edge cases

- If your error message differs even slightly, this is probably a different issue; search the exact text.
- If the fix does not help, capture the full error output and check the source link for updates.
